In 2016, adidas introduced the Alphabounce, a cutting-edge sports shoe that prioritized performance over branding. As part of this collection, the Alphabounce Instinct 'Grey' sneaker was launched, featuring a bootie-like design and utilizing adidas' innovative two-layer Forgedmesh material. The midsole of the shoe is composed of Bounce cushioning, a flexible EVA foam that seamlessly interacts with the adaptive upper and rubber outsole, creating a perfect fit that feels natural to the wearer.
